July 2016 Newsletter
The State of California agreed to regional drought management allowing RMWD to no longer have a mandated reduction target thanks to decades of regional drought planning and the incredible conservation efforts of our customers. On June 22, 2016 Rainbow Municipal Water District (RMWD) submitted their self-certification application to the State Water Resource Control Board with the support of San Diego County Water Authority (SDCWA), the region's wholesaler and source of 100% of RMWDs water supply, supporting sufficient supplies to meet anticipated demands and maintain or improve supply reserves for future water years. In response to this modification, at the June 28, 2016 Regular Board meeting, in a unanimous vote by the Board, RMWD moved from a Level 2 to a Level 1 Drought Response.
